No effect in Shantae and the Pirate's curse

Game used dx11, have no exclusive fullscreen mode, only windowed fullscreen and just windowed. Works with reshade without any crashes, but effects not injected at all. I was going to fix pixelated graphics with gauss + crt shaders same way i did Shantae Risky Revenge, but with this game i failed. This game really needs a fix.

Also i have special request for such cases - can we have gedosato (which is only d3d9) portion of code borrowed to force trilinear + anisotropic filtering of every surface in game? That could force interpolation in every pixelated game or in games that has some surfaces pixelated

Yet again, i even tried it as Opengl32.dll in combo with WineD3D. dont work even that way.

Does it work with this ? If not, could you create a tracelog with that one?

Nope, does not work. Is tracelog different from default one? How can I force it?
Anyway here what I have now with that version:
pastebin.com/keMBtfX2

Rename the .log to .tracelog and run it again.

Here you go:

Still won't work, but I'm interested in the tracelog again: www.mediafire.com/download/hxru22r32sde6lh/ReShade32.dll

One more log pastebin.com/HuNnU3Sy

not sure if it can help, but steam overlay does not work in this game, at least with reshade

Mmh. Texture creation with a typeless format fails. I wonder why that is.

maybe you should try game itself? you know, not for playing, but just for testing purposes for free, if you know what i mean) its only about 500 mb.

Try this .

Tried, gives me this:

lines it does not like looks like this
#include "ReShade\Common\Util.h"
#include EFFECT(Common, ToggleMessage)

Thats happens in this 18.2 build. Also tried new 18.3 and it gives me same thing.

is there some bug in new version and something include syntax related is screwed?

oh wait, this gives me idea! Look at the path where game installed by default on steam!

It uses ' symbol. this could be related, since it looks like reshade does not like tha path where effects should be found, i think you got to check path related code and add some checking for all of extra symbols that windows allows in path, including ' and use some escape symbols to distinguish part of path from closing and opening ' '. i think this could solve the problem.

forget what it just said, was my mistake, now i got this

pastebin.com/42FY1Cm2
some shader compilation errors:

i dont even get which file this is, is there any way display actual file instead of hashes or offset or whatever it is?

Those are something different and not related. Something is messed up with your shaders. Delete them all and download a clean copy again. And use public 0.18.3, it has the same test included.

but last log was exactly from clean copy of SweetFX with Reshade 18.3 from download page, thats how it behaves in this game, i tried same files in GTAV and RE5 (dx 9. 10, 11) and there it works fine.
Maybe you just need to download this small 500 mb game and try it on your pc to see whats going on?

Here another tracelog from clean Framework with 18.3:
pastebin.com/5XeyznCM

I own both the Shantae games, will give ReShade a try and see how it responds in case it helps with troubleshooting.

store.steampowered.com/app/345820/

Pixel art games so I first thought they used something simpler like DirectDraw but from my amateurish knowledge with a hex editor it looks like it's using DirectX 9 so that shouldn't be a issue though it's still a 2D game but maybe that doesn't matter either.

you have totally no idea
RR is dx9, works fine I posted on forums pack with modded shader to simulate GBA smooth scanlined look.
PC is dx11 (very odd for 2d game as simple as that) and it behave weird with reshade and that's the problem we trying to solve.

Gave the game a try and you were completely right, wouldn't have expected the game to use DirectX 11 but it does.

And the shaders fail here as well with this game.

d3d11.log and d3d11.tracelog (dxgi works as well, I just tested with D3D11 to see if it would make a difference.)

EDIT: With all effects disabled it display error X4555 invalid type used for sv_vertexid input semantics must be integral.

log and tracelog file from that run.

Could be fixed with 0.18.5.

Good news, thanks! Any eta or test build link?

bit.ly/ReShadeBeta-0-18-5

Not the public release anymore since gamma correction does not always work right yet with the new changes.
